a. Ghetto Delta Airlines- lower class straight forward blatantly making fun of black people

b. Everest College advertisement-racist stereotypical black guy, stereotypical black guy, trying to reach out to people him

How are they the same, and how different? (50-75 words)

Both of these videos are showing the typical stereotypes of lower class of black people. The dialect in both videos are using “black slang” and improper English (showing one of the stereotypes of black people-uneducated). They differ in how the stereotypes are being represented. For example in the ghetto delta airlines commercial; the representation of black people are being portrayed through an older white male; whereas the Everest college advertisement is showing black people through a black man who encompasses all of the components of black stereotypes.
